Reaction Steps

A solution of the product from step 1, in THF (11 ml), EtOH (25 ml), Pd—C (1.17 g, 10% wt) in a round bottom flask was charged with H2-balloon after flushing with hydrogen 3 times. The resulting solution was stirred overnight at rt. The reaction mixture was then filtered, washed with THF (30 ml), EtOH (25 ml) and dried over anhydrous MgSO4.
